Good location but subpar accommodations

The receptionist at the front desk was very friendly and welcoming. The hotel was in a great location on a lake and right near downtown Mount Dora, however, the lighting in the room was very poor, there was a sag in the mattress, and the room had a strong musty odor. While I knew this hotel was “historic”, I didn’t realize how much the accommodations need to be updated when I booked my stay.

Excellent location I loved Mount Dora! The hotel is very beautiful and historical. The room was a bit small but very clean. The bed was ok but more on the firm side. The view by the lake was all worth it. Although a bit overpriced but overall a nice unique experience.

The Lakeside Inn is a place for those who appreciate historical places. Beautiful grounds, pretty lake view, friendly staff, serene, walkable to other town shops, restaurants, and quaint coffee shops/bakeries. Full capacity, but not overwhelming - high end, yet reasonable.
